Josh Q. Public: The hardest working man in blog buisness!
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Just a quick one today. A Big Ticket one today. Here’s your ticket. Hear the drummer get wicked. The Big Ticket got wicked last night, boy. The Big Ticket got wicked in the third quarter last night, boy. The Big Ticket got wicked all over Amare Stoudemire and the Phoenix Suns last night in the third quarter boy. Oh boy. All of my life I’ve been a-waitin’. Tonight there’ll be no hesitatin’. Oh boy! When you’re with me, oh boy. You can King James me. You can Kobe Bean me. Heck, you can even CP3 me. I’ll take my chances with Kevin Garnett. Game tied at the half. Enter the third quarter. Enter the Big Ticket in the third quarter. Eight points in the third quarter. Twenty cents in the third quarter. One block in the third quarter. Big deal, you say. So what, you say. Who cares, you say. Check this out, I say. Amare Stoudemire had no points in third quarter. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Amare Stoudemire had four turnovers in the third quarter. As goes Amare. So go the Suns. That’s defense boys and girls. Tough defense. Rough defense. Sho’ enough defense. Championship defense. Tom Thibodeau defense. Stick with your man. Think of him as chewing gum. By the end of the game, I want you to know what flavor he is. Toast flavor. Garnett finished with thirty points. Thirty points on 12-19 shooting. He made hook shots. He made jump shots. He made incredible shots. Unbelievable shots. MVP shots. MVP! MVP! MVP! You know, a basketball hero around here is treated like a god. Kevin Garnett has reached Mount Olympus.

how does he not win MVP if the Celtics finish with the best record in the NBA?
you know why the NBA always awards the MVP to a player on one of the top teams?
less risk of having to deal with the fiasco of last year, presenting the trophy at a press conference instead o####lorious playoff pregame celebration.
I love KG's intensity. I was sad to see a talent like his being taken for granted in Minnesota. It's great to see him back where he belongs, contending for an NBA championship.
TD is considered the greatest power forward of all-time. I often think what KG could have done in San Antonio. So much of a player's legacy is determined by chance. It's a team game and one guy can only do so much. KG's been doing everything in his power to win for his entire career.
we all witnessed greatness lastnight. i can't tell a lie, a seven game series with Amare v. KG would be something to behold. Those guys bring out the best in each other, always have and it was a joy to see. Having said that, KG is truelly making a bid for MVP.
